Indy's OL isn't nearly as good as ours and neither is their defense. Not to mention that Luck is playing with cracked ribs.
Yes, it's a down year for Luck no doubt, but the team around him isn't nearly what we have in Cinci.
I'm not knocking Dalton's year. It is a great year so far. But OP was a ridiculous in that is assigns Bengals success to one player, ignoring the quality of this team. It was no more a valid opinion than saying Dalton has no weapons. This whole thread needs to go to the Dalton mega thread.
Flenner isn't even considered to be their #1 TE D Allen is. He had 8 TD receptions just last season. Johnson had 85 receptions for 936 yards just last year. Has our #2 ever put up those types of numbers? Frank gore had 1,106 yards rushing and a 4.3 carry average just last season. He even has the same average this year as he did then. He sucks now though. TY Hilton was a pro bowler last season. Donte Moncrief is a decent second year receiver.
At any rate, these players were picked to go to a SB. Their offense was supposed to be high-powered. Now all of a sudden, with no major skill player injuries, they are all garbage.
